Different Hair Types

Understanding Your Hair Type:

First confirm your hair type to make it more healthy and beautiful. A simple test can be done with a tissue paper.

Wash your hair. Next day, take the tissue paper and press it on the center of the head and behind the ears. Do not rub the tissue Paper.

Remove the tissue paper and
observe it carefully. If you find oil on the tissue paper, you have oily hair other wise your hair is dry. Likewise if the head is oily but the ends are dry, you have combination hair. If the hair is shiny and non-greasy, you have normal hair and are infact a very lucky person. Once you find out your hair type, you can treat your hair accordingly.
